We had the most wonderful stay at this riverside gem in Cornwall.

From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful setting — the property sits right on the water, with views that change beautifully throughout the day. The house itself is spotless, stylishly decorated, and feels homely. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better: tucked away enough to feel private and tranquil, yet only a short drive to charming Cornish villages, coastal walks, and fantastic pubs. We loved exploring by day and returning to our riverside retreat in the evenings.

Fantastic view and location. The house has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The boys really enjoyed using the kayaks and had great fun on the water. Would return for another visit! Thank you.

Fabulous stay!

We have had a fabulous stay at Tideway, Extremely well equipped and a great spot to explore Cornwall from. As well as travelling around by car, we went to Falmouth on the ferry from the slipway just up the road, which is well worth doing. The café there looks really nice too. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Hopefully, we will be back.

Peaceful stay.

Lovely peaceful cottage, superbly equipped. We enjoyed the tranquillity of the Creek, the herons, egrets and twittering of the house martins. Lovely walk to St. Clement’s (bit muddy in places) and it’s a perfect base for our excursions to the Roseland Peninsula, Lands end , St. Agnes, Fowey, etc etc. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely property with us.

Thank you for such a beautiful and thoughtful review! We are so delighted to hear you enjoyed the peace of the cottage and the tranquillity of the Creek, especially spotting the herons and egrets. It's wonderful to know our home served as the perfect base for your many excursions to the Roseland Peninsula, Fowey, and beyond. It was a pleasure sharing our property with you, and we do hope you'll come back to stay again.

A Stunning tranquil oasis of peace!

A Stunning tranquil oasis of peace! Beautiful walks, left to St Clements and right to Truro city past Trennick Mill café. We loved the jacuzzi spa, the very close proximity to The Heron Bistro Bar and the very short stroll to the jetty to catch the boat to Falmouth. Spotting Herons and Egrets and watching the tides became an idyllic past time. Thank you for a relaxing break!

Wonderful home.

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your wonderful home. The views are stunning! The beds were a little bit too firm for us however we loved how huge they are. The kitchen is more equipped than my own kitchen! The home is lovely and clean and so quiet. Thanks again.

Great spot with amazing views

Very comfortable furniture (beds, sofas, etc) with a good range of cutlery and dishes for use. The hot tub worked brilliantly and was very clean. Some of the blocks/slabs on the steps to the tiered garden were loose / damaged which should be looked at as could be a hazard if not attended to soon.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Sept 2025
Hi Simon, Thank you for your lovely review and constructive feedback. I am so glad to hear you found the property comfortable and well equipped. We love the hot tub too, it's one of our favourite features! Thank you for letting us know about the loose slabs. We have raised this with the property manager and will ensure this is rectified as soon as possible! We hope to have the opportunity to host you again soon. Kind regards, Finest Retreats.

Perfect base for our Cornwall exploration.

The view out of the front is like an oil painting. Accommodation is comfortable, cosy and practical and everything we needed was provided and more. It felt like home from home. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us. I would warmly recommend it to other potential guests. Agency's communications

Truly mesmerising!

The most relaxing place I think we have ever stayed - even the kids chilled out! This spot is truly mesmerising. The view, the birdlife, the sound of the owl at night. Total tranquillity. A glass of wine next to the log burner was magic.

Beautiful well appointed property

This property is spectacular. Beautiful views, comfortable king size beds (2) with luxury linen and bath sheets. There was everything you could possibly need supplied, including a fabulous extra large outdoor spa.. we were welcomed with an incredible gift basket and the property only got better from there. We travel a lot and I have never stayed anywhere better. I would book again in a heart beat. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday. One week was not enough in this beautiful place.

Amazing views!

The communication from finest retreats was really good. The views from the accommodation were amazing, it’s a great location and the house was really well kitted out with nice facilities. Being able to use the kayaks was a great bonus Some areas of the house (on the outside) looked a little unloved. For example the outside furniture was cobwebby and had bird poo on it which we needed to clean before using it. The kitchen layout was a little tricky as it’s long and narrow with the fridge at one side and the oven, kettle etc at the other.
Response from VrboOwner on 8 Sept 2025
Thank you for your valuable feedback! We are so glad you enjoyed the amazing views and the great location, and it's fantastic to hear you made good use of the kayaks. We sincerely apologise that the outdoor furniture was not up to our usual standard for your arrival and have passed your comments to our team to ensure this is given extra attention. We appreciate you letting us know and are delighted that you had a wonderful stay overall. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future.

Stunning views

Communication was great, check in / out was easy.This property is beautiful; comfy beds, high quality bedding, a fully stocked kitchen, welcome pack filled with gorgeous local goodies. Everywhere you look there are really lovely details from the hinges & handles on the doors to the piece of wood in the window seat.I can’t stop thinking & talking about the views; they were simply stunning from most areas of the house and garden. The location is perfect; local pub within a few minutes walk, lovely local walks m, supermarkets & a town nearby and the icing on the cake was being able to catch the little ferry down the estuary to Falmouth then onto St Mawes from the Malpas Marina. Perfect! All the main areas were super clean, the fireplace hearth was really dusty and the decking outside the back bedroom could have done with being swept but these are very minor things. We will become regular visitors to Tideway. We loved it!

Cornish heaven.......

This is such a fantastic house. We stayed in Malpas last year and loved it so much we decided to come back but wanted more space. This house gave us that and more. It's a home not a holiday home, exceptionally well equipped, and a lovely feel to it. Light airy rooms with magnificent views across the River Fal. My partner did not want to come home. This area is so peaceful but is close to everything. You can explore the whole of Cornwall from here without spending all day in the car. There is a fantastic walk from the house to St Clements and the cafe and pub are such a bonus being just down the road. One of the big pluses though, having stayed in this area before is the garage. It can be a nightmare to park and gets very busy and this was not an issue with an enormous garage for us to use. All in all a perfect stay and we will be looking to rebook for next year. Thank you. Bathroom could do with a refresh.

Wow ..what a view

Such a peaceful week watching the tide ebb and flow from the main window A little disappointed by a few things at the property 1 toilet roll provided (there was 4 of us) 1 tea towel..1 bin bag, 1 hand towel. The steps going upto the property were lose and uneven in parts (bricks moved under feet ..felt unsafe) Again the steps at the rear got very slippy and after rain my husband slipped on them after taking the dog into the garden (no hand rail) The toilet seat needs fixing, it moves when you sit on it. On the whole the house felt very cold and we did try to increase the thermostat but this constantly reset itself. The property could do with a sweeping brush on the premises, the hoover was very cumbersome and sweeping a whole floor with a dustpan and brush isn't feasible.

Cornwall at its best!

The Views are simply stunning and the quality/comfort of accommodation was first class. Really easy to access Truro and surrounding region, whilst feeling remote and peaceful. We will be back!! Notification of steps to gain access but being picky.
